 | Hennessee Family Tombstone Displaying pedigrees for both Mom and Dad.
Designed by David and installed in July, 2017... |
 | Continental Drive, Detroit, Michigan
This is a current image of the house we lived in between 1945-1950, of course, the neighborhood was far nicer then.
The house to the right was the home of my best friend, Paul Elias. Paul's family was Lebanese and completely foreign to me given my Southern culture, i.e., they spoke a different language, they were dark-skinned, had black hair, they displayed their Catholic, religious artifacts, ate tabouli, sucked raw eggs and burned incense sticks...
Upstairs there lived a family called, "?Falk?", whose teenage daughter, "Billie Bea", was probably my first baby-sitter. I remember she retrieved for me an autographed picture of the "Lone Ranger", portrayed by Clayton Moore and I was so excited - wonder what happened to it? Her mother would throw down to me Hershey bars from their upstairs apartment back porch when I was playing in the backyard ... DAH |
 | Brothers... David & Fred. This photo was taken in Detroit, on Continental Drive, late Spring of 1951...
Fred was six months and I was 8 ...
|
 | 626 Flagler Boulevard, Lake Park, Florida Mom & Dad's first house in Florida which cost them &17,500. We moved-in during early November, 1957 and as it turned out during an unusual cold spell. I remember freezing my ass off because the house's flooring was terrazzo and there was only ONE wall heater in the entire house. Neither was there air conditioning. I still remember sweating to death during the summer months and through September & October which were the most humid.
Never did like that house... |

"Dear David,
While going through my mother's photo album I found these pictures taken August 1973. I remember their visit, your dad was having a severe bout with bronchitis.
Spoke with cousin Pearl the other day. She told me about your wife's passing. So sorry. May God bless you.
Sincerely,
Cousin Joe"

 | Agneta Pederson She is Athena, Helena of Troy, Marilyn Monroe and Kim Novak. Their combined beautyand grace all rolled-up in this wonderful woman. Platinum blonde hair, alabaster skin and Fjord-blue eyes. She was as beautiful on the inside as she was to look at. She was sweet, intelligent and elegant.
I had just bought this car and was returning from Cologne where the seller had arranged for his mechanics to make the sure that the car was in tip-top shape (photo below)
I had taken my then girl friend, Karen Hansen, with me to enjoy the week-end in Germany (photo below)
On our way back to Paris, Karen asked to drive by, "The Select", a bistro which we frequented (see photo)
